This cathedral is actually a complex of 9 chapels, built one after the other and linked together by galleries and passages.
It was built in just 6 years, from 1555 to 1561, a major achievement for those times.
It has a unique design in Russian and Byzantine architecture, with most elements resembling Asian styles, some historians claiming it is a recreation of the Kul Sharif Mosque, the largest mosque in Russia at the time
In the 16th century the cathedral’s basement was used to store church coffers and the savings of wealthy people.
The beautiful Cathedral has been in danger of demolition several times. In 1812 French troops wanted to blow it up, and in 1920 the Communists were not happy with this Christian symbol in the heart of Moscow. But miraculously, it escaped these threats.
